If there's one thing Park Beyond can't do, it's its management system, which doesn't work correctly and will frustrate you. So, if you prefer a sandbox, Park Beyond is a game you can enjoy. If you're looking for a theme park operation simulator, you should go back a few years when simulators still knew their limits.

The Forza Motorsport journey has come a long way, and it returns with slight innovations in the eighth installment. Sadly, however, there aren't that many, and more than a reboot, I wouldn't be shy to label it as an improvement on the seventh installment. While it's the most accessible sim, before it can teach new players more realistic driving, it overwhelms them with powerful assists. However, fans of the series will enjoy the game, especially if they play it with friends.

The return to the franchise's roots has been a success for the developers. They returned the old mechanics, which is insufficient for a perfect game. Unfortunately, Assassin's Creed Mirage lacks coherent direction and a quality script. After the previous long episodes, however, this is a pretty enjoyable game for a weekend.

This cartoon adventure tells the story of a Russian Jewish girl named Asya, who was deported to a German concentration camp. Through oil-based drawings, you will experience the struggle for bare life, survival in the wilderness, eternal loneliness enriched by depressive states, and hunger and cold. The game includes several mini-games, and you can't avoid sneaking through dangerous environments. It is above average in its conception and offers a very intense emotional experience.

Ad Infinitum is an ambitious game. You can feel the love and effort of the developers, but it falls far short of the required quality. It tries to tell the dark story of a PTSD soldier and his family in World War I. It tries to combine the horrifying reality of life in the trenches with the dreamlike terror of nightmares. It succeeds in many of these things, but unfortunately, they are brought down by many other unpolished aspects of the game. As a result, the overall experience is as disjointed as the title's intermittent quality.

Cyberpunk 2077: Phantom Liberty's expansion feels confident and proves it with several great ideas that expand on the solid foundations of the original game. It offers a complementary story of conspiracy, twists, and tension. You'll also meet a brand new cast of memorable characters. After its 2.0 update, but especially with the Phantom Liberty expansion, we have no problem continuing to argue that Cyberpunk 2077 is one of the best games of the current generation.

Lies of P is an excellent attempt by Neowiz to break into the problematic segment of souls-like games. And they handled almost everything with aplomb. Although, on the one hand, the game sometimes blatantly copies familiar elements, especially from FromSoftware games; maybe because of that, you won't realize you're not playing a game made by them. That's how good Lies of P is. It's a shame that it's brought down by some fundamental problems, though. Some of the biggest ones can be counted among the strange emphasis on unintuitive boss attacks, significantly underused lying mechanics, and the uninteresting nature of some of the locations. Fortunately, this is offset by the fantastic gameplay and overall atmosphere. Thus, Souls fans should not overlook this game.

Mortal Kombat 1 is the best installment in the series. The reboot of the timeline made room for new, but also old chaotic plots that are now gripped a little more steadily. Beginners needn't fear starting off with this installment. Thanks to the cameo fighters, you get something new again. Unfortunately, the interactivity of the arenas has fallen off with this option, but given the dynamics of the combat, that's not entirely a bad thing. The soundtrack in Mortal Kombat is more ambient than some dynamic pumper. The changes from the last installment are many, but I can't say they're detrimental. On the contrary, I really enjoyed this fresh start.

The Crew Motorfest isn't just trying to be a copycat of the rival Forza Horizon series. Thanks to the improved driving model and sound compared to the second game, this is an excellent arcade race that you will be happy to return to. The replacement of the traditional campaign with the playlist mode is also to blame. Thanks to them, you will discover the whole island of O'ahu and also try out most of the fleet.

Jagged Alliance 3 is an all-around fun game that delivered exactly what we expected from it despite its flaws, which can get on our nerves, especially in the tactical part. Ultimately, though, it's not so bad that it ruins your experience of the game as a whole.

Mimimi Games is closing its gaming career in a big way. Pirate fantasy in the form of Shadow Gambit: The Cursed Crew is pretty, fun, enjoyable... just great. Unfortunately, it's not without its flaws, the monotony of the environment being the biggest one. Still, it is a game of unique caliber in its genre.

Chants of Sennaar is a successful logical point-and-click adventure game inspired by an ancient Babel/Babylon story. The linguistic overlap is embedded in investigative puzzles and is a significant part of the game's content, alongside other story-accompanying logic puzzles. The game is lovely artwork and combines simple graphics with an intense experience through the color spectrum and even the musical background. The communication with the player thus takes place on all possible levels and, despite the concretization, is primarily based on a distinctive perception and experience.

Fort Solis has severely untapped potential, and while it's great that the developers put more energy into the graphics and voice acting, they could have just carved out more time for a better story or interaction with the items. It can feel like a minor horror game and will force you to keep playing only to find that the story doesn't have much to offer, nor will it give you a reason ever to turn it on again.

In general, Starfield delivers an above-average combination of mediocre mechanics. There's no denying that Bethesda has created a strong core on which they can build content for months, maybe years to come, through updates and mods. And while Starfield isn't as bad off technologically as it was at the launch of No Man's Sky, it's the vision of future updates that can turn Starfield into something better. To be a game that doesn't just target Bethesda fans but brings a better experience to fans of all space games.

Immortals of Aveum had more than that, but it is still an OK title; it is not extraordinary, but it doesn't offend, and on the other hand, the humor and audio side of things are good. It's a shame about the appalling technical state on PC, where the title has problems even on a more robust build, but when the developers fix it? It'll be an acceptable title to unwind with.

Pikmin 4 brings a fresh dose of cool and fun ideas into the well-established series. New Pikmins, a dog companion, and a night mode? What more could you wish for?

Horse Ranch is an atmospheric expansion that will offer long-lasting variety. It adds to the difficulty and entices with its large world full of majestic animals with realistic animations. Unfortunately, the rabbit hole races are a big disappointment, especially when the trailer presents this aspect differently.

Exoprimal is an average title that will entertain but frustrate you at times. Exosuits are the best thing the game has to offer, but the poor implementation of playing as dinosaurs spoils the fun.

Armored Core VI: Fires of Rubicon is a title that is unlikely to make it into the mainstream despite its efforts. It's headed in the right direction, yet it's particular with an exciting theme that will only appeal to certain players. Those that do, however, are in for an incredible audiovisual spectacle with great gameplay. As well as, for the first time in a long time, a simply excellent mech game. It's just a shame about the uninteresting story because, in other respects, it's an amazing and robust package.

Baldur's Gate 3 is, without a doubt, the most fantastic RPG I've ever had the opportunity to play and review. It offers an enjoyable experience with plenty of choices to make. With unprecedented freedom in the combat system and exploration, with full content without microtransactions, Baldur's Gate 3 is an authentic adaptation of Dungeons & Dragons. The game's size and the world's depth can be complex and overwhelming for newcomers to the genre. Baldur's Gate 3 reminds us that developers can trust the player and proves that putting together an exceptional title means risking hard work, which in this case, paid off. Baldur's Gate 3 has become the new standard that other RPGs will inherit for generations.
